Seen these on the shelf at my local Walmart and was lured by the price. I've never had any issues with equate products before but these are disappointing.
They are nothing like the name brand. The plastic is thin, and with super plus and ultra, it makes it extremely difficult to use since the plastic finger grip won't hold it's shape. Also these tampons aren't shaped so it won't fully expand and "contour". The string also loves to absorb and causes leaking problems. Once I finish these, I won't be buying them again. In this case, you get what you pay for.

The applicator is comfortable, but the tampon is not like Kotex Security. The tampon looks like the old fashion Tampax, and expands in length only.

I would reccomend this product. I normally buy tampax multibox . I was shocked and pleased at how well they worked. Despite not being diffrent absorbance types. Im changing brands.

I used to use the Equate equivalent of Playtex tampons until they were discontinued. I then switched to the Equate Kotex equivalent and had been satisfied. The box that I bought recently has new packaging and the shape seems to be much more like Tampax (longer and thinner), which does NOT work for me. After a few too many leaks, I'll be going back to the name brands. Unfortunate.
